Our most important benchmark for computer systems is PCMark7. It works with traces, which are recordings of existing software for various applications, that are played back in real-time in order to create a realistic indication of real-world performance.

The presence of a fast storage device has a clear benefit here. You can see that the ASUS Tytan is a very powerful rig. Only the Sandisks U100 SSDs are a letdown, which you can see in the last chart on this page.
